I can't believe August is already over, that it will be school time again, then Fall (hello, big coats!) and then Christmas (in three months, but I'm already excited and I've started my book wishlist).
WHAT I READ
I was in a reading slump this month, because of some books that pissed me off, so I mainly read e-novellas (I know, it seems that I read a lot but in fact I didn't). I'm also really excited for some releases like Queen of Shadows (my pre-order will only arrive the 15th sadly), I didn't want to read anything else...

WHAT I WATCHED
Fantastic Four: I really liked the fact that this movie was more about character development than fully action-packed. I know it confused some people, but I'm not among them. It was very interesting to see the beginning of Ben and Reed's friendship during their childhood. They took the characters in a direction I wasn't expecting and it was totally realistic. 4 stars
Up (rewatch): I loved it even so much more the second time around (I didn't think I would, honestly), I cried a lot and laughed a lot. It was one of the best Pixar movies. 5 stars
The Maze Runner: I still hadn't watch it, I know. It was true to the book and everything, but it didn't exactly blew me away as a movie. I'm waiting to see The Scorch Trials. 3.5 stars
Pretty Little Liars (season 6): Overall, I liked the plot from this season but when the truth was revealed about A, I was so disappointed. It was totally weird and I had a hard time containing my disbelief, but honestly, it's maybe just me. However, I'm so excited about season 6B, because of the time jump, I really want to know what the Liars have become and what is this new threat.

WHAT HAPPENED IN MY LIFE
- I celebrated my one year anniversary with my boyfriend, I'm so happy!
- I went in vacation in the South of France, it was soooo hot. I was just going to the beach, swimming and reading all day.
- I just came back from a formation and now I'm totally able to work with children (it's for my summer job), I'm kinda graduated for that.
- I'm really sad I have to go back to school in the weeks to come...
How was your month?
